[PAA-Discuss] It's Time: Close Guantanamo

[Juli Kring]

I just told Congress to close the prison at Guantanamo and restore American values, and I hope you will too.

Last week, the New York Times reported that President Bush's new Defense Secretary Robert Gates favors closing Guantanamo and transferring the prisoners there to the United States.

And Senator John McCain (R-AZ) said, if elected president, he would immediately close Guantanamo Bay, move all prisoners to Fort Leavenworth and truly expedite the judicial proceedings in their cases.

The prison at Guantanamo is damaging American values, and our reputation in the eyes our enemies and allies alike.  It's time to end indefinite detention without charges and shut down Guantanamo. 

I hope you join me and tell Congress to shut it down by taking action now.  It only takes a few minutes.

Together, we can restore fairness and bring back American values.

Take action now!
